Sirius install in Monte

[Ozz]

Rich, here are some pictures of my install. One thing NOT to do, is install the antenna upside down....A CRS moment on my part. I modified the mount and made a L-shaped bracket for the magnetic base, so the antenna points UP...
The antenna works fine inside the Monte, don't need to go outside the trailer. I got my 12 volt power on the wall from the lamp, put the fuse inside the cabinet with the radio.

Ozz. My install is about the same as yours..Picked up the 12V from the same place..Point the antenna UP!!!!...no wonder I was not acquiring a signal inside the camper. Point the antenna up...who would have thunk////

Tim, we appreciate that. I do make major mistakes. It's part of the 'deal'. It is not for the squeamish at times. To tell a story on myself, one of my mod's is a nice white outdoor outlet up under my front overhang, it's in my Ozz's Mods. I was drilling where I thought my basement was, from above, to install electrical there.....right into the front of the Monte the drill bit went. So, a Lemonade out of Lemons kind of guy, I says to myself "Hershel" that's a good place for an outlet!

Tim,

I apologize for my post that I deleted, it was very insensitive and not appropriate for this forum.
